Last updated 2026-11-16 — Xunyi Wangshanhong The "Wangshanhong" apple is an early-ripening, deep-red sport of the "Changfu No. 2" variety. The fruit is nearly round, with an average single fruit weight of 260 grams. It features a bright color, crisp flesh, a pleasantly sweet and tangy taste, abundant juice, and good storability. This product overcomes the issue of Fuji apples not fully ripening in our region and solves problems associated with Fuji production such as incomplete nutrient reflux and poor tree stress resistance. It serves as a next-generation alternative to the Fuji apple. Recently, the provincial seed administration bureau presided over a scientific evaluation of the "Wangshanhong" apple. Experts attending the event conducted an on-site inspection of the "Wangshanhong" orchards, gained detailed insights into the breeding process, characteristics, traits, and planting scale of the variety, and thoroughly reviewed the relevant technical documentation. The "Wangshanhong" was officially approved as a new provincial-level variety.
